PPE Connection/Requirement

All PPE must comply with current ANSI, CSA or OSHA fall protection
standards and be inspected annually by a "competent" person.
Fall Arrest: Connect SRL cable "B" end ONLY to the dorsal D-ring
of a full body harness (FBH) as shown at
DO NOT connect to side D-rings.
Fall Restraint: Connect SRL cable "B" end to the FBH dorsal
D-ring or side D-rings. See Fig.11b.

SRL Anchorage Point

Anchorage Points that are not pre-engineered by SAS must be
engineered by a "competent" or qualified person and designed to
support the intended fall protection load.
Fall Arrest: Attach the "A" end to an anchorage point capable of
supporting 5,000lb(22.5kN) or 2x the engineered fall protection load.
See Fig.9a.
Fall Restraint: No free fall hazard exposure. The anchorage point
must be capable of supporting
fall protection load. See Fig.11b.

Leading Edge/Low Slope Fall Hazards

Horizontal tie-off points as shown at
hazard to more than 24" due to the dorsal D-ring height above
the work surface. When exposed to a free fall of more than 24", a
personal energy absorber is required to guard against severing the
wire cable during a fall. ANSI Z359.14-14 requires to use SRL-LE
models when the tie-off point is between horizontal and overhead
and leading edge fall hazards are present.

Service Life

The service life depends on the frequency of use, exposure to salt air
and moisture, and if the unit is used indoors or outdoors. In extreme
cases of contamination exposure, the SRL may require factory service
during the first year of use. See Table
Factory Service: SRLs subjected to a free fall, do not pass function
tests or inspections, are required to be returned to SAS factory for
service or repair.
WARNING! DO NOT attempt to open the casing or make repairs. SRLs
have an interior recoil spring that is capable of causing serious injury.
Table 1.0 Service Life and Inspections
Note that all annual (12 months) or semi-annual (6 months) inspections must
be performed by a "competent" person before being returned to service.
Approx.
Type of Use
Service Life
Indoor/Light 3-5 years
Indoor/Heavy 2 years +
Outdoor/Heavy 1-2 years
Salt Air 1 year
Note: Exposure to salt air, water saturation, gypsum and dust
will reduce the service life.

Storage

Store indoors in a dry area and hang from the "A" end to allow
moisture to drain. Do not place any objects on top of the casing to
prevent casing damage.

!HAZARD WARNINGS!
• Cable must not come in contact with sharp or
abrasive surfaces, chemicals or acids.
• DO NOT wrap the cable around any object.
• DO NOT expose to high heat, open flame, cutting
or grinding tools, or electrical sources.

Disposal of SRL/Hazard Warning

Units removed from service must be disposed of in a way that prevents further use and
prevents the possibility of someone dismantling the SRL. Due to the acute danger posed
by the recoil spring, it is recommended to return non-serviceable units to the SAS factory
for safe disposal.
